Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Leblanc, LA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Leblanc offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
